From the Desk of the
Pastor, Fr. André Ramos
"Blessed are the poor in spirit; the
kingdom of heaven is theirs".
Often we seek security and happiness based on the
fulfillment of our standards. We enforce them in our
daily lives. We say this person or this family or this parish can only be good or satisfactorily acceptable to us if
they put this in place, or work that way, please us or
fulfill our demands. We think that others should conform
with our opinions otherwise they are bad. And when
they don't or if they refuse, we get angry and sometimes
some of us become irrational and even run amok. We
then want to close the doors behind us or become aggressive and get even. Or else we sever our ties, stop
serving and finding it hard to love fully again? Might
it be that our ego and self pride are leading us unduly
to become bitter?
It is at these moments of unhappiness or discontent
when the Scriptures this weekend--and again in the future--remind us of the joy of the humble and the poor in
spirit. It must amaze us that even in the midst of war,
even in abject poverty, even in failures, even in being
the last in the rat race, we can find persons who can be
happier than the wealthy and the very smart. These are
the poor in spirit and they will find happiness because
they do not equate their joys on fleeting things. We do
not have to become scavengers on a hill of trash, but
we have seen smiles in the faces of children of the
dumps.
Trust that only the Lord can be the greatest source of
our human longing for happiness. Not in our human
agenda, not in our worldly victories, not in winning the
debates all the time. If we cling on to these other
sources of joy, instead of our total confidence in God,
we need to watch out. Without adherence to fidelity to
God, we run the risk of misery in the end. Let us remain
vigilant with things and people and even ourselves lest
they hinder us from the beatitude we all long for.

Del Escritorio
Del Parroco
Bienaventurados los pobres de espíritu; el Reino de los
cielos es suyo". A menudo buscamos la seguridad y la
felicidad, basado en el cumplimiento de nuestras normas. Aplicarlas en nuestra vida diaria. Decimos que
esta persona o esta familia o a esta parroquia sólo
pueden buena o satisfactoriamente aceptable para
nosotros si ponen en práctica, o funciona de esa
manera, no nos complacen o cumplir con nuestras exigencias. Pensamos que otros conformidad con nuestras
opiniones lo contrario son malas. Y cuando no lo hacen,
o si se niegan, se enfadan y a veces algunos de
nosotros nos ponemos irritables e incluso causamos
escándalo. O nos ponemos a cerrar las puertas detrás
de nosotros o nos ponemos agresivos y obtener incluso. ¿O de lo contrario nos servidor nuestros lazos,
dejar de servir y resulta difícil amar plenamente otra
vez? ¿Será que nuestro egoísmo y el orgullo de
nosotros mismos que están conduciendo a indebidamente hacernos ser amargados?
Es en estos momentos de infelicidad o descontento que
en las escrituras este fin de semana--y una vez más en
el futuro, nos recuerda la alegría de los humildes, los
pobres de espíritu. Debe sorprendernos que incluso en
medio de guerra, incluso en la pobreza extrema, incluso en fallas, incluso en ser el último en la carrera de
vida, podemos encontrar personas que pueden ser que
son más felices que los ricos y los muy inteligente. Estos son los pobres de espíritu y van a encontrar la felicidad porque ellos no equipan sus alegrías en cosas
pasajeras. No tenemos que ser muertos de hambre en
carroñeros en una colina de basura, pero hemos visto
sonrisas en las caras de los niños de los depósitos.
Confié que sólo el Señor puede ser la mayor fuente de
nuestro anhelo humano de felicidad. No en nuestro
programa humano, no en nuestras victorias mundanas,
no en ganar los debates todo el tiempo. Si nos se aferran a estas otras fuentes de la alegría, en lugar de
nuestra total confianza en Dios, tenemos que tener cuidado. Sin cumplimiento de fidelidad a Dios, corremos el
riesgo de la miseria al final. Debemos permanecer
alerta con las cosas y personas y incluso nosotros mismos para que no nos impida la felicidad que todos anhelan.
